If only I could reach through the screen...Hopefully this weekend's football games can tide me over till you announce the winners on sunday. So I was thinking that whomever does win a card maybe someone could start a thread and when they get access could take a sort of screenshot all together to post here. Bah, I was just thinking out loud though. Good luck to everyone and for god sakes report all the bugs you can get your hands on!

You have been selected to participate in the beta test of World of Warcraft®: Wrath of the Lich King™. Welcome!

In the beta test you will get an opportunity to play the new Northrend continent, the Death Knight hero class, and character levels above 70. We look forward to your feedback on the overall experience, including quests, monsters, zones, aesthetics, and more. We would also appreciate reports on any bugs you may encounter. These can be logged using the /bug command explained below.

Getting started:

In order to participate in the beta test, you must upgrade an existing retail account which has been upgraded with The Burning Crusade®, allowing you to connect to the Wrath of the Lich King™ test realms. The World of Warcraft®: The Burning Crusade® game client that you use must be patched up to version 2.4.2 or later in order to install the beta test client.

Please be prepared to enter the current retail World of Warcraft account name and password you use, and the appropriate beta code listed below to authenticate your eligibility to connect to the Wrath of the Lich King test realms. To participate in the beta tests, you must have a valid retail World of Warcraft account active and in good standing as of July 15, 2008.

Below is a beta code that will allow you to upgrade the Account you use to play World of Warcraft®: The Burning Crusade®. Each beta code can be used only once to upgrade an active retail World of Warcraft® account.

Is the email for you lucky few.

NOTE: THE WWI KEYS ARE FOR EU. YOU MUST EMAIL BLIZZARD AFTER GETTING THE EU INVITE TO SWAP IT FOR US.

Okay. I got a WWI card (I went to the WWI) so this is how it will work.

When you receive your WWI card, register it to a email (doesn't have to be your WoW acc. email). You will (sometime soon, hopefully) receive an invite to the EU beta. After this, you must forward the following info to [email protected]

and post that you have not received an email (since you just signed up) to help hasten the process. The Customer Service of forums is where you want to post if you have any other concerns about the swap/invite (or post here. I'm sure we can help, too.).

Wow those cards are tempting Already in the WoTLK beta, so just here for the WWI card. But yeah, the beta is pretty awesome, when the lag isn't too bad Looking forward to seeing some of you guys on the Lich King server/realm hopefully

Sorry guys, already promised my roomate that extra beta key. He was a bit jealous when I got the opt-in beta key from Blizzard. Told him right after that if I somehow got an extra beta key it would go right to him. No offense guys.
